When Your Drains Are Clogged.
Your drains get clogged due to various reasons and whatever they are, if you cannot clear the clog by yourself, then it is high time that you called in a plumber. Large amounts of soap and grease buildup cause this problem and this can easily be solved by oneself. However, in some cases the roots of nearby trees or plants grow inside the drain through small openings or the ground may shift when settling. This moves the drain and the waste settles in a small slope that is created due to the shifting. In both these cases, a call to the plumber would be the best solution.
